"This is something we need to work on, as we have good players. We need to create more chances. I agree that in the two previous friendlies we did not have enough efforts on goal, but this is something we have been working on today," Kuzyayev told journalists.

He added that the team were working on all aspects of their game with the tournament drawing even closer.

Russia recently played two warm-up matches against Austria and Turkey, which they lost 1-0 and drew 1-1 respectively.
